Prescription drug abuse
I think a friend of mine might be addicted to prescription drugs. How can I confront him with my concerns without ticking him off. What if I am wrong? Can anyone tell me what signs to look for to make sure?
hi everyone havent posted lately, just been reading everyones post. cannedheels i can totally relate to the way you feel the hydros gave me that feel good feeling also about people and life that i never felt before, but now that feelings gone after using for 3 years. and i feel numb and miserable again. i also suffer from depression and panic attacks not to many antidepessents seem to work either. i dont know what to tell you about your boyfriend seems maybe his drugging has takin over his life also, you know the pills come before anything else when your addicted.anyways hang in there your not the only one with this shitty addiction. good luck!
What happened to me here could easily happen to you. Thomas first insulted me when I was trying to help Freezing. He apparently cannot tolerate someone knowing more than him about a subject. I have watched him scare people off this board for a long, long time.
I was helping someone, and he came up insulting me - do I not have the right to defend myself to the Great Thomas? He has no life and spends an unreal amount of time here telling everyone what he knows about the subject of addiction. Then when someone else with an opinion comes along, he throws them a dig. Since he's the one here all the time, people jump to his defense. It's sickening, and it has scared off a lot of good people.
Thomas you are obviously a "dry" addict...filled with anger toward the world for your lot in life. Do yourself a favor, and just jump off a bridge and get it over with.

Goldie, thank you for responding to me.I have been on practically every antidepressant (over the last 18 years along with serious therapy)......currently Lexapro and Wellbutrin,it's true that some people simply do not respond well to these medications.
But, I'm torturing myself over this man, a man who I would do anything for because I love him so much......but, the last time he asked me for pills I told him I didn't have them and I know he didn't believe me because he has stopped talking to me. And ignores me when he sees me.

Okay, here it is. I've been tapering from Oxycontin & percs for about 6 weeks (with several Big dose blow-its). It's been 5 days since I've had any oxy. The two days before that was only ONE 10mg. perc each day. This is my Day 5 w/o. or Day 7 including the two days I did 10 mg. BUT....I was assuming that I could take hydro 7.5 4 to 6 times per day to make the wd's bearable. That it did! But my question is this: Is it prolonging the addiction to the oxy, or is Hydro enough different that I can quit before becoming addicted to it too. This is my WORST DAY SO FAR!!! I have not had anything except 1 7.5 hydro yesterday morning. I can get more --- WANT more cuz I'm MISERABLE!!! Do you think that my taking the hydro has prolonged the oxy withdrawals??? I was quitting the hydro before becoming addicted to it. I was also experiencing wd's the whole time since going off the oxy. What in the HELL is happenening to me? This is my Day 5 from NO oxy! Shouldn't I be better now? Will I screw myself up by taking more of the Lortab? I have an appt. to meet someone to get more in about 1 hour!!!! Please help me! SOS! Don't fight with each other!!! I need help, Thomas, Mini, ANYONE please help me FAST!!!! It's 5:30 MST now!
This is quite an old gig!!
Seems Groovy, that changed her name to Mariposa, and subsequently banned here waaaayyyyyy back, has in fact reinvented herself(yet again) this time as minime.
Should have recognized that volatile temper (bup. induced i'm sure), and caustic attitude a long time ago.
urghh!

They do make a pill that causes happiness. It's called prozac.
It's been around a long time. Depression is the most "untreated" undiagnoed illness in our society. If you do a search on prozac, they have a little check list for depression. Alot of people use painpills as antidepressants. Check this out .... it could be a wonderful life .. Goldie
